The Scripture Way of Salvation

'But what is that faith whereby we are sanctified, saved from sin and perfected in love?' It is divine evidence and conviction, first, that God hath promised it in the Holy Scripture. Till we ar thoroughly satisfied of this there is no moving one step farther. And one would imagine there needed not on word more to satisfy a reasonable man of this than the ancient promise, 'Then will I circumcise they heart, and the heart of thy seed, to love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul.' How clearly does this express the being perfected in love! How strongly imply the being saved from all sin! For as long a love takes up the whole hear, what room is there for sin therein?

One Week In...

So I am one week into my third year of seminary.... woah. Two years ago when I started seminary (and one school ago) I am not sure I would have imagined myself where I am now. I have made lots of decisions over that time to lead me to where I am now but I think its all ended up well. I also would have imagined I would be graduating in 8ish months ... but I'm not.

I guess with moving schools mid-way through and essentially changing majors I can expect that but it still just seems sooo far away! I will be done (I think) with the academic grueling part come May but still not DONE! Alas there is more light at the end of the tunnel these days that can sometimes be hard to see but its not... within... reach... yet.

Sooo ya... school. Here we go again. I should be allowed to be called Dr. when I'm done due to the years I will have put in but no. Moo.
